'''Flomps'''<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vkzxf2ITZt0#t=469]</ref> (known as '''Floating Plates''' in ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]'' [[Prima Games|Prima]] guide) are a type of Thwomp appearing in the game ''Super Mario Galaxy 2''. They appear as a green platform with spikes on their sides and have a similar face to a [[Bomp]]. They move from side to side. At first glance, they seem like ordinary platforms, but after a few seconds, they make a malicious face and quickly flip over. If [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] is on one of these platforms when they flip, he will be knocked high into the air. They appear in only two galaxies: [[Bowser's Lava Lair]] and the [[Grandmaster Galaxy]].

Flomps (also called floating plates[1] or flipping panels[2]) are enemies in Super Mario Galaxy 2. Their name is a portmanteau of "flip" and "Thwomp," alluding to their behavior and appearance. These Thwomp-like creatures appear as green platforms with spikes on their sides and have similar faces to Bomps.

Super Mario Galaxy 2[edit]

Flomps mostly act as ordinary platforms, with some revolving mildly in one spot and others moving from side to side. However, at set intervals, they make a rattling sound, their faces become angry, and then they quickly flip over. If Mario or Luigi is on one of these platforms when they flip, he will be knocked high into the air. They appear only in Bowser's Lava Lair and the Grandmaster Galaxy.
